Chapter 1005
But John thought that after what happened last night, those people inside should have run away aswell.
Sophia nodded. "Okay, I get it." She didn't want to say any more, as her saying too much would causeJohn to feel burdened.
The two sat on the bed and chatted for a while. Later, John got up to shower and went downstairs toeat. Sophia hadn't slept the whole night, so her head hurt a bit, and she didn’t have an appetite. Hence,she told John to go down and tell the maid that she would only eat her breakfast later after a nap.
John knew that Sophia must have felt insecure for the entire night, so he didn't force her either. As hestroked Sophia's hair, he said, "You take a good rest. Don't worry about me, as the matter should beover soon."
Can we please end it soon? Sophia really hated such a situation like this one.
Not long after she lay back in bed, Logan called. Compared to John's seriousness, Logan seemed tobe a lot more relaxed. He told Sophia about the current situation of the shadow bank. Apparently, theshadow bank was closed down for investigation, and many account books were found inside. Most ofthem contained the details of what they had loaned out. The rest were their internal stolen accounts.
Narrowing her eyes, Sophia asked Logan, "So is that shadow bank completely destroyed now?"
Logan laughed aloud. "Almost. I heard Lola say that the evidence is quite sufficient, and many peopleinvolved in it have been arrested."
He heard Lola say it? Sophia picked up on that important point all at once. She asked, "So therelationship between you and Lola has improved again, hasn’t it?"
Logan made a hissing noise. "That is beside the point. Anyway, that woman and I have formed analliance. You know that. This time, the matter is so important that surely we both have to abandon ourprevious grudges. But I still look down on her."
"She still looks down on you too," Sophia replied.
Logan was at a loss for words for a long time. After pondering for a moment, Sophia continued to ask,"So, what's next at the shadow bank?"
Seeing that she had changed the subject, Logan continued with what he intended to tell her. "Just theexistence of one contraband will cause the shadow bank to be closed down for investigation. Now thatsome incriminating accounts have been found, the people involved would definitely be arrested. I heardLola say that there are quite a lot of people who are involved."
After a brief pause, he went on to say, "We caught some people before. Their lips were sealed, andthey had obviously communicated in advance, for they all sang the same tune. It’s not easy to breakthrough their defense, but these people who have just been caught are clearly unprepared, so therecould be a weak spot somewhere. We’re going to see if we can manage to expose the Bailey Family."
Sophia replied, "Okay. Then, I wish you all the best." novelbin
Her tone was not very enthusiastic, which surprised Logan on the other side. "What's wrong? I thoughtyou would be curious and would like to know some internal news about the shadow bank."
Smiling, Sophia said, "Forget it. I don't want to know so much. The more I know, the more worried I’llbecome, and that won’t be good for the child in my womb. If I don't know anything, I’ll live morehappily.”
What a major enlightenment. Logan nodded. “Yes, you’re right. Okay, then I won't disturb you anyfurther. You have a good rest, and when John and I are done settling these things, there will be nothingbut golden days ahead of you.”
When he was about to hang up, Sophia quickly asked him, "By the way, how is your relationship withMiss Hunt?"
Logan couldn’t help but snort before uttering, “What do you mean? We have nothing to do with eachother. Sophia, please don't talk nonsense. That woman is not a good match for me. You know that Iregard her with contempt and I don’t like her.”
